Pull-ups (Strict): Max Reps WOD - Scaling & Strategy | CrossFit Benchmark | PRZilla

Training Focus

This workout develops the following fitness attributes:

Stamina (7/10): A direct and challenging test of strict upper body pulling stamina (lats, biceps, forearms, upper back) and grip endurance. No kip means muscles do all the work for every rep.

Strength (6/10): Requires good relative upper body pulling strength. Each strict rep is a significant strength effort. Max reps tests the endurance of this pure strength.

Endurance (2/10): Minimal cardiovascular demand. Pure test of localized muscular endurance in pulling muscles without momentum.

Flexibility (2/10): Requires full range of motion (arms fully extended at bottom, chin over bar at top). Good shoulder and scapular mobility helps achieve this.

Speed (2/10): Controlled, full-range reps are key. Speed is not the primary factor; completing legitimate strict reps is the goal.

Power (1/10): Strict movement by definition minimizes power contribution from kipping. Focus is on raw pulling strength and endurance.
